Thomas Fuchs has been working with Nokia on their multi-touch API for Qt/WebKit:

scripty2 supports multiple API vendors for Multitouch events, and even provides a desktop emulation (click+drag to pan, shift+click+drag to scale and rotate)– so you can try this out even without having multitouch hardware at your disposal.

Currently the scripty2 API abstraction event supports Desktop emulation, Nokia Starlight and Apple iPhone Mobile Safari. With just one API, you can now multi-touch enable any web application easily, just check out the demos.

In a recent update to scripty2, I’ve also introduced automatic support for WebKit CSS transitions, so whenever scripty2 effects are used and CSS transitions are available, the effects engine will automatically do the right thing for you.

All in all, using this in your web sites or apps boils down to just a couple of lines of code:

PLAIN TEXT

JAVASCRIPT:

1.  
2. $(‘element’).observe(‘manipulate:update’, function(event){
3.   $(‘element’).transform(event.memo).setStyle({
4.      left: event.memo.panX+‘px’, top: event.memo.panY+‘px’
5.   });
6. });
